Page 4: Introduction
INTRODUCTION The RCOM-100 is a Globalstar satellite telephone for aviation. It is housed in an ARINC 600 2 MCU enclosure. The RCOM-100 is designed to provide voice and data communication in an avionics application. The voice connection is established through a standard TIP/RING interface. The RCOM-100 can be connected to any standard telephone handset that complies with EIA/TIA-464B and TIA/EIA/IS-470-B. -

5. Mount the PTA-12 6. Mount the VC28. 7. Route the coax cables for transmit and receive to the ARINC 600 2 MCU tray. 8. Create the wire harness for the RCOM-100 and PTA12. 9. TIP/RING voice communications check out. INSTALLATION... -
Page 6: Table 3-1 Transmit Cable Lengths
There are 2 cables with TNC connectors on both ends and all appear to be the same. Once the antennas and RCOM-100 locations have been verified to meet the above restrictions the installation can proceed. For mounting location in the Cessna 180 series aircraft refer to drawing ENG-5021. The shown locations for Antenna, and RCOM-100 comply with the requirements listed above. -
Page 7: Securing The Mounting Tray
4 Barry Mount vibrations isolators and the mounting holes and the screws to be used. The ENG-4985 drawing shows the RCOM-100 in the mounting tray with dimensions. Page 2 of ENG-4985 shows the RCOM-100 center of gravity. Prepare the mounting location to provide a good electrical bond between the mounting tray and the airframe. -
Page 8: Transmit/Receive Antenna Installation
After antenna is secure, seal around the base of the antenna with RTV compound to keep moisture from getting between the antenna and the aircraft skin. The picture below show the Antenna mount from the outside the aircraft. ARNAV Systems, Inc. Document No. 570-8050B 27 November 2002... -

Page 11: Vc28 Mounting
Prepare the mounting holes and secure the equipment. Refer to the picture above (RCOM-100 and VC28 Mounting). The VC28 is just to the left of the RCOM-100 and is mounted to the equipment shelf. Route Coax Cables for Tx and Rx: Refer to Drawing ENG-5021 to see Coax routing location. -
Page 12: Wiring The Rcom-100, Vc28, Pta-12
Refer to wire routing on drawing ENG-5021. Route wires from the back of the aircraft at the RCOM-100 along the right side of the aircraft and below the doorframe to the area behind the control panel where the wires connect to the audio panel and PTA-12. Assured that the cables are secured and avoid routing near any control cables or moving surfaces. -

Page 14: Data Port
8 bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, hardware handshaking, with EIA/TIA RS-232 standard signal levels. The data port in the RCOM-100 is wired to a DB9 connector and is intended for use by only approved computing devices in the aircraft. If the data port is used by an approved device, the instructions below define the data port capabilities and requirements. -
Page 15: System Testing
Move the aircraft out of any hanger or enclosed area so the antenna has a clear view of the sky. The RCOM-100 is taken off hook by selecting “TEL” on the audio panel. After selecting “TEL” there will be a dial tone. Press the “Hook” switch on the PTA-12 then dial the number to place a call. -
Page 16: November
Using a terminal emulator program with the serial port set up for (19200,8,n, 1). You should be able to type AT<ENTER> and get an OK back from the RCOM-100. This verifies that the data port is wired correctly and that you can communicate with the internal Modem of the RCOM-100. -
